Blow . . . It . . . Out . . . Your . . . .ass.

Sig worthy.

I don't care. The guy doesn't put the ball in play or do anything productive offensively. It's like having two pitchers in the lineup.

Actually puts the ball in play more frequently than just about anyone in the lineup.

I wasn't watching when he "struck out bunting" but I'd put that on fredi being a dumbas. Janish shouldn't start, but there's nothing wrong with him having an INF bench job.

Like this?

Yes. Absolutely like that.

Now that's more Jimmy worthy than that garbage y'all were trying to put off on me. Truth.

Post of the year?



I think it should it be considered.

If theres anything good about it, it looks like he may have turned just enough to get most of the impact on the flap and turn it into a little bit of a glancing blow. At least the ball deflected to the side rather than just falling at his feet. Still never good when a hard object hits your head at 90 mph.

I don't know, there are some people that I would say it would be a good thing if a hard object hit their head at 90mph.

No expert on the jimmy rules, but if I can't read the post I highly doubt it counts

I'd agree with that

Sucks is an understatement.

Elliot Johnson makes Greg Norton look like Mickey Mantle.

Watching the replay of Heyward again, its pretty clear the ball didn't hit him in the eye or really anywhere close. That's good news. Hopefully this won't be a real long term thing.

Worst case is a broken jaw, which would be a catastrophe.

Even still, that's something that an offseason could heal. When you start talking about serious eye injuries, you worry about getting into the career threatening realm.

I totally agree, I should rephrase and say the worst case judging by where he appeared to be hit. It certainly could be much, much worse.

Nati didn't take his jimmy like a man, therefore he has no dog in the jimmy fight. If you can't take the jimmy you cant give the jimmy.
